We’re all “going green” these days as it’s the only way to sustain our planet. Moreover, I guess we’re all aware that in that sense something’s gotta give in order to make the world a better place. However, there are some limits.
Take the Natural Year Phone concept pictured above. Sure it will dispose itself after 2 years of use, but can you imaging actually putting “that thing” in your pocket. For one thing, it looks so flammable. I’m not sure what Je-Hyun Kim (designer of this handset) was smoking thinking, but I’m all against going this far. Can we at least make the materials look more non-natural, i.e. smooth?
Anyway, if you have any thoughts on the subject of disposable handsets, we’re eager to hear your thoughts. Comment form is all yours…

Dusan Belic
Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
